enjoy this one. this is "today in the bay." good morning, everybody. i'm jon kelley. >> i'm laura garcia-cannon. breaking news in san francisco. an overnight home invasion and as many as five suspects on the run this morning. this is happening on 40th avenue and anza street in the city's outer richmond district. that's where "today in the bay's" christie smith joins us live with the one thing the suspects left behind that could lead police right for them. interesting, christie. >> reporter: good morning to you. new information. i just spoke with people inside the home who were robbed overnight and they are telling a very scary story. they didn't want to go on camera. they say they were inside at the time. these are students and they say five guys with hoods on came into the home and they had guns. they threatened them. they kicked the door down.

they are thinking even though there's a gate in front of this home that maybe it wasn't locked and that's how they got in in the first place. what happened is that they say they took a kitchen knife and threatened them in addition to having the gun they say they heard banging and the door gave way. this was overnight about 3:00 in the morning here in the richmond district. they say that these guys got in and kept demanding money and marijuana asking for a large 50-pound bag of marijuana. they say the men believe this was a grow house in the past and they think perhaps that is why it was targeted. they say they went through the closets and drawers and had everyone get down on the floor. they say they even got violent with them, grabbed one woman inside by the hair and kicked another guy in the chin. they say they took cash, cell phones, laptops, and again this is five guys they say involved with this. they made no effort to hide their faces at all. they had hoods on. two of them got scared they are

saying and ran out quickly. the other three were in here for quite some time taking whatever they could. everyone okay this morning. shaken up and so far no arrests. reporting live in san francisco, christie smith, "today in the bay." we're also learning more about breaking news in daly city. police now investigating a crime scene on imperial way not far from the cemetery. we have a live shot there of the scene. officers say a father and son got into a fight. the father was stabbed several times. his son struck in the head during that fight overnight. both, however, expected to survive. we have marla tellez right now. she's the first reporter on the scene. she's getting to the bottom of what exactly led up to that fight and will have a live report coming your way in ten minutes. a silicon valley tech giant is sending a powerful leader to north korea. google's executive chairman eric schmidt will travel as early as this month.

scott mcgrew will discuss the impact of this landmark visit but we begin with bob redell live at google headquarters in mountain view with more this morning. good morning, bob. >> reporter: good morning to you, laura. officially from google headquarters here in mountain view there's been no comment yet. that could be in part because this is considered a trip that is considered to be private. the ap is reporting that google executive chairman eric schmidt will be later this month possibly as soon as the end of this month will be traveling to north korea on a private trip that would be humanitarian in nature and led by former new mexico governor bill richardson. this would be significant for a number of reasons. as you're well aware, north korea is very secluded. cut off from the rest of the world known as the hermit's kingdom. the country doesn't even allow citizens access to the world wide web and only some citizens are able to get on a local internet that's controlled by the government. it is also no secret that google

wants to bring the internet to everyone. whether or not schmidt will push for that on this trip is not clear. allowing google's chairman to visit could be at the very least symbolic. the timing of this trip is also interesting. just a couple of days ago in a new year's day speech, north korean leader kim jong-un said his country is in the middle of a modern day revolution and emphasized bringing his country into the 21st century whether it comes to digital technology and computers. will the leader of that country be meeting with the leader of this silicon valley giant? that is still unknown. let's turn this over to business and tech reporter scott mcgrew. from your point of view, what do you think the point of this trip is? >> nobody is really quite sure, are they, bob? there are some historical analogies here. we talked about kim jong-un being like gorbachev opening the country a bit. nixon going to china on a

smaller scale. is google going there for business to crack the north korean market considering how few computers are in north korea, it doesn't need to. google hasn't come up with within agreement with china and that's a huge market. perhaps google coming to the peoples republic even in the form of one guy that's still considered fairly exciting. we're talking again earlier about gorbachev. we weren't quite sure what he was up to early on. this dates us a little bit. he made early steps in the early '90s with the most minor of things. we got to see his wife for goodness sakes and kremlin watchers thought that was fascinating and kim jong-un has been showing off his wife and maybe a maybe as we see cracks in north korea. >> in the secrecy. thank you very much. this morning we are also watching the weather as we give you a live look outside. this over the south bay in san jose. it is not a spare the air day as it has been the last couple but the state is asking you to avoid

using your fireplace any way just to ensure that we have better air quality. >> and for more on your forecast, let's get right to meteorologist christina loren to tell us what's happening outside. crisp, cold and sun coming. >> sun coming in. we'll see a sunny finish to the day. temperatures are going to run mild as a result. 38 degrees in san francisco. 27 degrees in napa. basically we have had this pattern where we had frigid starts followed by nice rebounds in the afternoon with temperatures climbing. by 30 degrees in some instances. we're going to hit 60s today. 29 in gilroy. 30 in livermore. this time of year we end up in upper 50s in places like san francisco, san jose for example. frigid to mild for today. a.m. fog will return throughout tomorrow and temperatures mild tomorrow afternoon as well. the good news is about tomorrow. we get the cloud cover and it will serve as a blanket over the greater bay area. temperatures will run five to ten degrees warmer than where they are right now. not as frigid to start tomorrow. stray chance for a shower as we

head throughout the weekend. we'll talk about that coming up. what you need to know for today, by noon running cold. you can peel off a layer at 4:00 p.m. 61 degrees inland. your full forecast in just a moment. seven day is ready to go. let's talk to mike about the drive. >> we'll start with the look at palo alto. 101 where i have tracking on the northbound side, a disabled vehicle in the lanes that cleared chp report. volume picking up from a number of headlights in this live look of the map shows a tad bit of slowing past the embarcaderemba. smooth drive for that portion. we just got a report in here getting on north 280 at woodside road, highway 84, someone reported they spun out and slid on black ice there at the onramp. a note for folks that person is okay. no crash. they wanted to report that for chp and again as christina has been saying temperatures down at 30 degrees. we could see freezing temperatures, black ice in the north bay and also reports on

the peninsula. live look outside shows you what's going on as far as traffic flow. we'll get a look at the bay bridge where things are starting to slow down on the incline. reports of a disabled vehicle around treasure island. i don't see flashing lights but slowly moving taillights and that slowdown caused folks at the toll plaza to turn on those metering lights or the backup for cash lanes and fastrak lanes off to the left. we don't see a problem for the right side. maybe make your way over there if you can coming off 880 interchange. that commute starting to eke up over the week. we'll follow it for you. coming up, this is a strange story. parents drugged in their own home. >> and they utilized a drug test we have here and they tested it on themselves and they believe it came up positive. >> we'll tell you about the extreme action two teens allegedly took to get around their internet curfew. we'll have that just ahead. >> reporter: daly city police investigating a stabbing between a father and son at this condo complex in daly city.

i'll marla tellez. what investigators are saying about it coming up. a live look outside city by the bay san francisco see the transamerica pyramid to your left there. another cold start but a slight warmup on the way. christina has tabs on it for you. a lot more ahead as well. 6:10 right now.

new details on breaking news we're following in daly city this morning where police have just updated us on a bizarre overnight fight between a father and son that landed both of them in the hospital. the father was stabbed multiple times. this morning investigators are trying to unravel exactly what happened. it all happened on imperial way not far from a cemetery. "today in the bay's" marla tellez was first on the scene. what have you learned so far, marla? >> reporter: laura, i can tell you in the last 30 minutes since we last talked to you,

investigators have completely cleared the scene. this is the crown colony condominiums right off 280 right as you exit hickey boulevard. i just interviewed a sergeant with daly city police and he tells me it was actually the father who used his own cell phone to call 911 about 2:30 this morning. that's what prompted all of the police officers and fire department and ambulances to come to this condominium complex. that's when the father about 2:30 this morning and the son got into a fight and that's when the son stabbed his father. >> the officers responded to the scene and they saw that the dad had multiple stab wounds and the son had trauma to his head. we're not sure where he was stabbed yet. we think it's a knife. i can't confirm that at this point. he was definitely stabbed with some type of sharp object. >> reporter: now both have been transported to san francisco general hospital where police say they are recovering with nonlife threatening injuries.

we do have video of at least one of them being transported on a gurney this morning. we also have video of a white car that was parked underneath in the garage here with blood stains inside that car. police are not saying how that ties into the stabbing exactly but it is related to this crime scene. police at this point are trying to figure out what prompted the fight between the father and son. we can tell you the father is said to be in his mid 30s. the son late teens or early 20s. live in daly city, marla tellez, "today in the bay." it's 6:14 right now. a quick check of the day's top stories. the other ones we have for you. students who survived a school shooting at sandy hook elementary school returning to classes today at a school in nearby monroe, connecticut. this will be the very first time the kids have returned to class since the tragic december 14th attack leaving 20 students and six staff members dead. we'll have a live report coming up for you in a half hour.

google's executive chairman eric schmidt will visit north korea on a humanitarian trip. the trip will reportedly happen sometime this month. nhl and players association still have not come up with a deal to get hockey back on ice. a federal mediator rejoined those negotiations. it stretched into early hours today. neither side saying if any progress at all has been made. fiscal cliff deal is now done and it's now officially signed by the president. president obama ordering the bill to be signed via auto pen because right after they wrapped things up he went back on vacation with his family in hawaii. the auto pen is a device in washington, d.c. that replicates the president's signature. the president also signed a $633 billion defense bill for next year. in the meantime, the house plans to vote tomorrow on aid for superstorm sandy. house speaker john boehner agreed to the vote following pressure from fellow republicans

who were angry that he had scrapped a vote earlier this week. friday's vote covers $9 billion for the national flood insurance program. another vote on january 15th will cover the remaining $51 billion in that package. here's a big story. interesting here. the arab centric network al jazeera will buy current tv. >> controversial among a lot of americans. it has respect from journalists. >> it does. the hard feelings go back to the iraq war. al jazeera covering it from a different perspective showing images of american bodies so english language network seen here has had hard time finding a spot on american digital channels. they are covering problems in central america. they are a worldwide audience. as you point out, it earned some respect in the ways that it does cover worldwide issues. sometimes in a rather dry fashion like bbc or pbs more

than cnn. current television will go away eventually. al jazeera buying current television. video from this morning's broadcast on current. al jazeera says it will offer some jobs to current employees though former san francisco mayor gavin newsom has a show on current and tells "l.a. times" he won't be one of them. now, if you look for al jazeera english you won't find it on almost any cable channel. it is available on an ipad app. a solid one as well. it is something that is interesting and worth checking out. a controversial channel, jon and laura, something that is certainly changing media and we'll watch how this changes current as well. >> very interesting. thank you very much. >> current tv mostly known for their keith olbermann hiring and debacle. now it will take a new direction. loren longhorn is here checking on your forecast. what can you tell us besides

cold? >> wind of change through this afternoon in through tonight and tomorrow. that's good news, jon and laura. we'll wake up tomorrow morning with mild conditions. it won't be as frigid. let's take you outdoors right now and show what you we're working with. this came in from viewer ron p. cold. he was able to write that vividly on his windshield this morning. throughout the day today, it is going to be cold enough for frost just about everywhere. even in the city by the bay. san francisco cold enough for you. you dropped into the 30s this morning. give yourself extra time to warm up your vehicle. if you parked outside on the street, not within the confines of the carport, you probably have this thick coating of frost. not as thick as yesterday morning with less moisture out there. temperatures are running cold though. some cities are running colder. 27 in napa. 38 degrees in san francisco. 29 in gilroy. and 30 degrees in livermore. 29 degrees in concord. basically everywhere you head this morning very cold conditions. cold enough for black ice to form.

really want to travel cautiously over 17. if you are headed from san jose down to santa cruz this morning or vice versa. air quality has improved overnight. we're back in the moderate range. sparing the air for the past couple days. you notice clear skies overhead and that air quality will continue to improve as we get more onshore flow starting this evening. area of low pressure will move into the bay area. high pressure stands firm. what will happen is the return of the low clouds as we wake up and meet back here tomorrow morning. we'll see more 40s than the 30s and 20s that are out there right now. low clouds and drizzle on the way for friday morning making a way to a sunny finish. we stop the clock for you on future cast 3:00 a.m. on sunday. very slight chance of maybe a light shower as we head through sunday into sunday afternoon. overall it will be overcast and cloudy or cooler than saturday. saturday is the day for outdoor activities. not too early to think about the weekend. friday eve after all. 58 for thursday in livermore. 58 in redwood city. 58 degrees in san francisco today. seven-day outlook tells the

story. the one chance we have for rain not that great. in fact, it doesn't look like we'll see significant rainfall. that storm window opening back up potentially until the midsection of the month. 14th through the 17th is what i'm bull's eyeing right now. we'll let you know if that changes. wash the car by yourself. if you're getting in the car, hold up. mike is here to tell you about the drive. >> live shot behind me of the bay bridge. this is the worst backup we've seen in a couple weeks because of the traffic flow here. heavier flow but also look on the maps. there's a new accident reported. a crash at the toll plaza. i didn't see it on the shot. there's one reported just around the toll plaza. they usually clear those quickly. that's causing additional backup on the berkeley curve. volume of traffic building causing slowing through emeryville and that disabled vehicle still has yet to be cleared as far as chp is concerned over at treasure island. it's a slower drive in through the city. traffic is still moving smoothly and the rest of the maze is a nice, easy drive on the approach. it's just east shore freeway and berkeley curve with the backup

at the toll plaza that is building. we showed you also some more slowing coming out of the altamont pass through livermore. basically slow from the isabelle interchange over toward dublin interchange. a smooth drive south for 680 through sunol with earlier disabled vehicle. a smooth drive through fremont and pleasanton for south 680. south 880 moves nicely. we'll see this with a slowdown next week. right now a lighter flow through that portion of the east bay and into the south bay. northbound route for 101 shows slowing for 101 north of 680 heading toward the airport and 87 into downtown. 280 popped this up northbound from 17 all of the way up toward cupertino where we see a slowdown because of the build here. typical pattern but unusual for the last week. we've had light traffic flow here. we'll look to sanborn and highway 9 where there's the accident. the car hit a pole. chp on scene. there will be traffic control and also in the hills north of here through woodside reports of

black ice. that's a possibility we have one report of that. keep that in mind for the north bay. back to you. >> thanks a lot, mike. it is 6:21. coming up, drugging parents to get around a curfew. what two teens are accused of doing putting into a milkshake that knocked their parents out all night. right now live look outside. we'll squeeze your money's worth out of this one. this is a spanning shot. san francisco marina district also the palace of fine arts there down toward the left. a cool way to start your day but christina loren telling us it will warm up a little bit. dress accordingly, please.

the hands of the district attorney. >> could have been very dangerous too. >> absolutely. that's bizarre. >> really is. all right. 6:25 right now. nothing bizarre about the weather this morning. another cold start but at least it will get warmer, you're saying? >> indeed. winter in the bay area. good morning to you. we're either dealing with the rain or the cold mornings followed by sunny finishes. however, today we are going to see temperatures requiring a jacket at least through noon. 34 degrees in san jose today. 29 in gilroy. cold enough for frost everywhere. give yourself ample time just in case you find that when you meet your car. 61 degrees later today inland. let's check your drive with mike. >> let's look at the build. traffic is an issue this morning as far as volume of traffic. this is 880 north past the coliseum. more company than you have seen for a couple weeks. you'll meet at the bay bridge. this is what you will see. backup for the lanes metering lights are on. reports of an earlier crash and disabled vehicle.

both are clearing without major delay across the bridge. slow up the incline and coming down the east shore freeway west 80. here's a look as you look at the traffic out of richmond and through berkeley slowing because of volume here as well. back to you. >> all right. thanks a lot, mike. 6:27. still ahead, a new congress dealing with old problems. we'll tell you what's already on the agenda on day one of work as capitol hill prepares for an inauguration overhaul just ahead. and as we wait for the sun could come up, a live look from downtown san jose. looks like smooth sailing out there. early. mike inouye is checking our traffic. christina loren has skies and weather. we're back in minutes.

now. in washington with fiscal cliff behind them for now, congress moving onto a fight with a new team. the new tecongress will be swor in at 9:00 our time this morning. they have a full plate to deal with right away. what's the most pressing issue now? >> reporter: probably the debt ceiling which we're going to hit again in a few weeks until congress has to decide whether or not america can borrow more money to pay its bills. president obama says yes. republicans say hold on. we have to cut spending first. that's something they didn't really get done to the degree that they wanted in the fiscal cliff bill so that's going to be a huge issue coming up and we could see a vote on that in early february. >> what makes this congress so different? >> reporter: you know, it's interesting. this is one of the most diverse groups that we've ever seen come to capitol hill. we've got a record number of female senators. 20 of them in this group. a record number of latinos in the house.

first time ever that the house democratic caucus will not be mostly white males. the makeup of this congress is going to be very different. the first asian american female senator coming to washington this time. the first openly gay female senator coming as well. we've got a number of firsts and a lot of records being set already and they haven't even been sworn in yet. they will be in a few hours. >> rookies among them. including from the bay area. >> what's interesting about him. he is a democrat in a family of republicans and he said that he's really looking forward to coming here because he was here as an intern years ago. he actually served members of congress when he worked at a restaurant here. he will actually be working with some people that he served with when he was here many years ago. in terms of the issues that they're going to have to deal with here, he's really hoping to like many of the freshman members bring a fresh

perspective and one that the american people have been looking for for some time now. >> and will continue to. thank you very much, tracie. this morning we're watching your weather very closely as we give you a live look over san francisco. the sun soon to come up. this is not a spare the air day like the last couple but the state is asking you to avoid using your fireplace. they want to make sure that the air quality is still good for us. >> do our part if we can. a warmup on the way will help us out as well. let's check the forecast with meteorologist christina loren. >> it certainly will, you guys. good morning to you, jon and laura. good morning to you at home. tomorrow morning you take a look at your temperature where it is right now and add an additional 5 to 10 degrees and that's what we'll wake up with tomorrow as clouds return. clear skies over san jose. right now at 29 in gilroy. 35 in santa cruz. even the city by the bay, san francisco at 38 degrees. cold enough for frost as your windshield gets much colder than

surrounding air especially if you park out there for longer than two hours. frigid to mild today. daytime highs will climb toward that 60-degree mark just about everywhere and a.m. fog returns tomorrow but we'll hold onto 60s as we finish off the week and get ready to kick off that weekend. stray shower chance as we head throughout sunday. we'll time that out in my next report. for today, 61 degrees inland. bayside, 60 degrees. full forecast is just a few moments away. that seven day is ready to go. it's friday eve. let's check that drive. some people just heading back to work today. >> for one good day of work and then probably find some excuse to call friday for an easy day as well. we're seeing more cars on the road. a couple incidents as well. earlier disabled vehicle cleared and now turn the camera around north toward willow. taillights heading north toward san mateo. cardboard blocking a couple lanes. we don't see debris. haven't seen traffic break. i did see slowing at the top edge of the screen. there may have been something going on. looks cleared. back to the maps we'll show you a smooth drive heading up from

embarcadero toward university where that debris was being cleared in the last few minutes. woodside here getting on 280 someone called chp say they slipped on black ice. potential for that. quite possible through the area especially if there is a busted sprinkler, that water will freeze even though there's not rain going on right now. there is a possibility of water on the road. we'll look at bay bridge toll plaza. we have had a backup here pretty much for the morning commute. metering lights turned on at 6:00. normal time. earlier accident and disabled vehicle cleared from the span but there's the backup going back into emeryville. slow again and it's just starting to build. back to you. >> reality of traffic fun. all right. 6:35 right now. one of the murder suspects accused of killing a silicon valley businessman will now face a judge today. 21-year-old deangelo austin will be arraigned later this afternoon for allegedly taking part in the murder of ravi kumra. prosecutors say austin along with two other accomplices

teens or early 20s. they obviously got into a fight but over what is the big question. the two, however, are recovering and are expected to be okay at san francisco general. >> the officers were processing the crime scene as far as any potential evidence that was in the apartment and we have detectives at the hospital right now waiting to speak with both parties to find out what happened. >> reporter: also related to this is a white car that we actually shot video of early this morning. it has blood stains on the driver's seat. that car parked in the garage below the third floor apartment where this all went down. we talked to the security guard who was on duty at the height of the investigation. he's just baffled to hear what happened. >> the biggest thing that happens around here is a bit of vandalism in the garages. that's the biggest thing i've ever heard of. >> reporter: we spoke to other people that live here at crown

colony condominiums and they are surprised to hear this happened. speaking to at least six people here, they say that no one saw or heard anything. live in daly city, marla tellez, "today in the bay." >> san francisco police this morning searching for as many as five men who robbed a home at gunpoint overnight in the city's outer richmond district. officers still at that scene near 40th avenue and anza street where "today in the bay's" christie smith joins us live with updated information. christie, good morning. >> reporter: good morning to you, jon. i just spoke with students who were robbed overnight and they are telling a scary story. very shaken up this morning. they say they were sleeping when a group of armed men with hoods on kicked their door in and started demanding cash and marijuana. they say that these guys also took a kitchen knife from their kitchen and threatened them with it and then actually tossed it out right behind us here into the bushes at the front door as they were leaving. this happened around 3:00 in the morning here in the richmond

district. a group of san francisco state students were sleeping. they think that these guys got past the front door or front gate that was unlocked. they made no effort to highs faces and marched from the bedroom to living room where they ransacked the place for cash and cell phones. one of the victims said he thinks the gunman believed this used to be a marijuana grow house and that's why it may have been targeted. these guys got violent and kicked one in the chin, grabbed some of the women's hair who were inside. the man that we spoke with said this whole ordeal lasted about 15 to 20 minutes and then the guys ran away. the students very scared this morning. of course they say they've never had a gun pointed in their face. all of these are students at san francisco state. they say that once their lease is up, they do plan to move. reporting live in san francisco, christie smith, "toy in the bay." >> christie, thank you very much. >> check the forecast with meteorologist christina loren.

sun starting to come up over the bay area. >> coldest point of the day. sunrise. it's cold out there. you think about it though, it's the furthest point from which our energy source, the sun, was last out. that's why it gets so cold around sunrise. temperatures will start to warm up just after 7:35 and temperatures are going to be mild as we finish off the day. as we head throughout the first part, you need the jacket. 38 degrees in san francisco for an hour or two. 36 degrees in sonoma. take you down so the south bay where we have just as cold temperatures in places like gilroy at 29. 29 degrees in concord this morning. 30 in livermore. talk about air quality. this has improved overnight. more wind helped to mix out particulate matter. good in moderate range everywhere across the bay area. don't have to worry about spare the air for today. it's not illegal to burn firewood we urge you don't do too much unless you have to to

get air quality in good shape for everybody. through 6:00 p.m. tonight, things will get tricky. a cutoff low. it's hard to dictate where a cutoff low will end up. it's not attached to the jet stream. so what we're expecting is this will meander offshore ushering in more clouds and drizzle. we see showers increasing toward the coastline. what we are expecting is somewhere between overnight saturday into sunday, maybe a few light showers. very light. nothing heavy. maybe measuring a tenth of an inch of precipitation. like i said, it's hard to pinpoint exactly where that thing is going to end up and how much rain it is going to bring. keep that in the back of your mind. a chance of showers as we head through late saturday night into sunday. 58 degrees for today. lots of sunshine in livermore. 59 in fremont. 60 in san jose. and the same for you in oakland. temperatures will warm up into the mid 60s by saturday. we're looking good there.

increasing clouds. maybe a stray shower on sunday. and next week overall looking rather dry. no significant rain in the forecast until the midsection of the month. let's check your drive with mike. >> we're looking at more cars on the roadways. we saw an early burst of traffic but now things are sorting themselves out north 101 north of 680 up to the airport. 87 coming into çdowntown. the burst at 280 and 17 seems to have sorted itself out. that's a key for the build. we'll track that for the south bay. highway 9 at sanborn an early morning crash resulting in a car hitting a pole. pg&e thinks it's one of their holes. traffic control for this local commute. watch for that. other local roads very cold out there at or below freezing temperatures. be careful. possibility very high of some black ice in many spots. 680 not a problem. 580 slowing through livermore. easing a bit over the last 20 minutes. that might be the burst you see for that area. 880 slowing through hayward and

also through fremont. san mateo bridge with west commute moving slowly. a few cars. bay bridge also has a backup but it's easing over the last few minutes back to the 880 over crossing. westbound is your commute. eastbound at central reports of a big pothole. we'll let you know if caltrans has to close any lanes. back to you. >> thanks, mike. weeks removed from a tragic and heart wrenching scene, an emotional day in newtown, connecticut. >> first time since that deadly shooting spree at sandy hook elementary, students and teachers who survived the attack will return to class. jay gray is live in monroe, connecticut, now with a closer look at where the kids are going back to school and what the first day will be like. good morning, jay. >> reporter: good morning, laura and jon. they are going back here in monroe. the next town over about seven miles from sandy hook elementary. they are going back to a school that was empty before this tragedy. a middle school here that the

district offered and sandy hook took advantage of. they've been working over the last three weeks to refurbish that facility. a lot of work included bringing equipment and the furniture from sandy hook elementary to this new school and recreating the classrooms inside to look almost exactly like they did at sandy hook elementary. that's down to the book bags and desks and all of the jackets that were left as students ran out putting them right back in place and having the kids sit next to one another to feel some type of familiarity as they walk into this facility. it won't be about lesson plans or academics today when they come back. it will probably be next week before they really hit the math and science and those things hard and have homework. more arts and crafts today. it's about getting back into a routine and getting into some kind of school structure and being with those classmates, and being together in the classroom. it's going to be tough for the parents as well. in fact, many have told us i'm

going to have a hard time letting my kid go back to school. i remember what happened the last time i did. it's tough to let go. those students will be allowed to come to school today -- parents will be allowed to come to school with kids and stay as long as they need to. they'll go through the first half of the day doing arts and crafts and things like that and last half will be more of an open house where they will talk about what's happening and what's working and what's not working and what they need to focus on. as one administrator said, there's no playbook for all of this thankfully. we've never had to go through this before. so we're learning as we go. and we're just trying to keep a focus on what we can do to help these families help these kids as they come back. >> it sounds like they just have to continue to try to work through it as a community like they've done all along. all right. we wish them all the best. thank you very much, jay. >> that's a tough one there. 6:53 right now. a silicon valley tech giant

sending a powerful exec to north korea. google's executive chairman eric schmidt traveling to north korea as early as this month. scott mcgrew will discuss the impact of this landmark visit. let's start things off with bob redell live at google headquarters right now in mountain view with a look at what's happening. bob, good morning. >> reporter: good morning to you, jon. no comment yet from google headquarters here at mountain view. the associated press is reporting that google executive chairman eric schmidt will be traveling to north korea as soon as possibly as early as this month. this will be a private trip. it will be humanitarian in nature and led by former new mexico governor bill richardson. this would be significant for a number of reasons. it's no secret that google wants to bring the internet to everyone and people at north korea don't have it because the government frankly won't allow it. only some citizens are allowed access to a local internet that is government controlled but not

the worldwide web. whether or not schmidt would offer to change that for what's considered to be the last frontier in cyberspace is not clear. allowing google's chairman to visit could be at the very least symbolic. the timing of this trip would be interesting. just a couple days ago in a new year's day speech, north korean leader jim jong-un emphasized importance of bringing his country into the 21st century with digital technology and computers. will the leader of the country meet with the tech giant? that's unknown. i want to bring in scott mcgrew into this conversation. get your thoughts on what you think the point of this trip could be. >> bob, i think you were right on. you talked about symbolism. it's not going to be as b s bub trip because computers must measure in the few thousands so there's no profit to be found in north korea. some analysts say maybe north

korea is interested in google services but even that's probably overthinking it. we just simply don't know why schmidt is going. nobody has said out loud or even whose idea the whole trip is. as you point out, you do have this young leader in the peoples republic telegraphing wi ining willingness to open up the country. schmidt is going to north korea as a private individual and not as a representative of google so much that schmidt can be seen separate from google. google stocks this morning up ever so slightly. dow industrials down 42 points after a terrific day yesterday. back to you. >> what a way to start the new year. >> good rally. jump-start for us. thank you very much. 6:56. let's see what's jumping if our weather. christina loren, one final look. >> you may have so jump to stay warm out there and get that heart going this morning. it's frigid yet again. this is the last morning where we expect the 20s at this hour. we should be more in the 40s and

upper 30s tomorrow morning. 27 degrees is very cold in fairfield and napa. same for santa rosa. 29 in gilroy. right here in beautiful san jose 34 degrees. 38 in the city. some north bay cities are expected to drop to 26 degrees. as we progress through the next half hour. you round out the day at 61. lots of sunshine. tomorrow morning we wake up and that fog returns. mild conditions as a result to start. we do have a chance for rain in the forecast. if you missed the seven day, we'll have it every 15 minutes throughout the "today" show. good morning, mike. >> good morning. your day planner showed potential for ice at many spots at or below freezing temperatures. keep that in mind for local roads. bay bridge starting to thaw a bit. backup moving better. it hit hard and now look at that, only backed up to the end of the parking lot. you still have company coming down the east shore freeway and east out of berkeley toward richmond at central avenue reports of a big pothole.

we're tracking it. caltrans has yet to tell us if they will close lanes. i'll track that. fremont in the east bay shows you the build here. south from dakota past the truck scales heading down to the south bay. expect slowing over the next half hour to an hour. back to you. >> thank you so much. time for a final check on some of the day's other top stories. students that survived the school shooting at sandy hook elementary returning to class today at nearby monroe, connecticut. the first time the kids have returned to class since the december 14th tragedy and attack that left 20 students, six staff members dead. the live report was very emotional. google's executive chairman eric schmidt will visit north korea on a humanitarian trip alongside former new mexico governor bill richardson. the trip will reportedly happen this month. nhl and players association still have not come up with a deal to get hockey back on the ice. a federal mediator joined those

negotiations that stretched into early morning hours today. neither side right now saying if any progress has been made. it's official. machines have taken over the world or at least in america. there are now more internet connected gadgets than people in the u.s. consumer market research group npd estimates 425 million devices versus 311 million americans. the gap really continues to grow. we're talking smartphones, tablets, and gaming consoles to name a few. if you get up early with us on a regular basis, this might affect you. starbucks going greener. the coffee chain offering a reusable cup. the idea here is for you to bring that cup back for refills in return they'll give you ten cents off your drink. starbucks says baristas will clean those cups before refilling them. >> interesting concept. >> we'll see if it works. thanks for joining us this morning. we're back with
